They just asked me about my personal statement so make sure you know that , they asked me about escape velocity, atoms in water and then got me to try and see what I can make of Bernoulli’s equation but it’s really relaxed

Hi

I applied for physics and maths (Equal)in York and got a interview. I wrote my SOP on a completely unrelated subject (Economics) , will it have any effect?

They probably didn’t even look at your SOP don’t worry as long as you can answer questions in the interview

For my interview at Manchester, I didn't get any technical questions at all. I had to talk a bit about my personal statement, and why I wanted to study physics, and why at Manchester, and I'm currently doing an industrial placement so they asked me about that too, but nothing on actual physics. I think it depends what interviewer you get allocated.
